Auburn's Casey McElroy hit a two-run homer in the ninth inning to lift Auburn to a 3-1 victory at Alex Box Stadium and send the reeling LSU Tigers to their sixth loss in seven games. It was LSU's fifth consecutive SEC defeat and drops the Tigers to 22-14, 3-11 in SEC play.

It matches LSU's worst SEC start in 30 years. The 1981 team under Jack Lamabe started 3-11. LSU had six hits and struck out 10 times while going one for nine with runners in scoring position.
